A very good morning everyone, welcome to Allsorts challenge and our 6th Birthday celebrations.

It seems like only yesterday when our very first challenge was launched and here we are with our supporters still growing in numbers, amazing entries each week, not to mention our lovely sponsors without whom non of this would be possible and to them we are most appreciative for their continued support.

I spent a little time earlier this week looking back over the very early challenges of 2009 and although many of the entry links are no longer visible, the comments are and I saw many familiar names who still pop up in current challenges, along with lots of new ones as well, to you all on behalf of the whole Allsorts team I can only say only one thing............A Massive Thank You.

So no doubt you are wondering what we have in store for you this week.............no it's not a blog hop this year, instead we have a phenomenal prize prize on offer from Tattered Lace, so we are hoping you will put all your efforts into entering the challenge which could be only one thing................

********Happy Birthday********
